To the north-west of Dzhanyara is Ubud, a city well worth a visit because of its picturesque location and the artistic talents of the residents. It is important to remember that this is the only center on the island are struggling to maintain the local nature and culture. Sightseeing We start with the market Pasar Ubud, which lies at the crossroads Yalan Yalan Raya Ubud and Vanara Wan. Area in the morning filled to the brim with people who empties about two hours of the day. Across the street stands the palace of Puri Saren Agung, who served as the seat of government since the end of XIX century until the Second World War. Like the palace in Dzhanyare, it was rebuilt after the earthquake in 1917 and is now in it every night are representations of traditional dances. Artistic capital of Bali is famous for numerous galleries and museums, which brings together fine examples of local art. At Yalan Raya worth a visit Lempad House, where we see the denominator of nitogo Balinese artist, sculptor and architect Gusti Nomana Lempada (about 1862 - 1978). On the next Yalan Shrivedari we will see women's art gallery Senivati. The most interesting Museum Ubud - located west of the market Puri Lukisan. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, building houses a collection of traditional and contemporary works. Most sumptuous gallery on the island - Neka Art Museum, 2 km west of Ubud.
